Hot enough seem to be 245 C ... Is this on purpose?

I've found info that it has to be >250°C. The turbine will output steam at lower temperature, so it will convert heat into electrical energy.

We don't yet have a thing that would output that hot steam, so the turbine is currently of little use...

Rumour has it, that there is a new biome coming and a burner of some sort that will be able to create hot steam. So next update. Just got the steam machine a bit early
